Sunset Bar at Shangri-la Tanjung Aru

Bars & Nightlife

Most of the city’s bars are within reasonable walking distance of each other, making it easy to enjoy a varied evening out. Many larger hotels feature bars with live bands, but the most popular spots are found on the waterfront and the side streets opposite this strip. KK’s vibrant nightlife centres around late-night pubs and bars, which often host live bands playing until late. There are also a few good nightclubs, all conveniently located near each other, so it's easy to find a venue that suits your taste.
